Planning perspective
What to consider before reaching out
A strong first conversation is about fit, not just availability. Share your date, approximate guest count, location, and the feeling you want the day to have. Ask what is included, what typically changes the final quote, and what decisions need to be made earliest.
For a florals partner, confirm how communication works, who will be present on the day, and how the team handles changes. Pricing was not included in the supplied research, so request a current, itemized proposal directly from the business.

Our wedding weekend was executed flawlessly due to the services of York Flower Shop! Christine/Gretchen knocked it out of the park, from rehearsal to ceremony and reception, the floral arrangements set the vision of our big day! Professional interaction from the first call, to consultation down to the way she coordinated her team the day of. We were in awe of the artistry involved by this talented team. We thank you, and only recommend you to all moving forward!

Gretchen absolutely killed our wedding vision and went above and beyond in every possible way. She took everything we imagined and turned it into a beautiful reality. Every arrangement was absolutely stunning and brought so much life and elegance to our wedding day. My bouquet was especially gorgeous — even more beautiful than I could have imagined. You can truly see the talent, creativity, and care she puts into her work. From start to finish, she made the entire process so easy and exciting. We received so many compliments on the flowers all night long, and we could not have been happier with how everything turned out. Thank you, Gretchen, for making our wedding look like a dream!

I ordered these flowers for my wife’s first Mother’s Day while we were staying at the Cliff House, and the entire experience was exceptional from start to finish. I called a few months in advance to reserve the arrangement, and the person I spoke with was incredibly friendly, helpful, and confident they’d create something beautiful—and they absolutely delivered. They coordinated seamlessly with the hotel concierge so the flowers were waiting in our room at check-in, making the surprise even more special. My wife said this was the most beautiful arrangement she’s ever received from me—which says a lot, because I’ve sent her many flowers over the years! I highly recommend this florist for bo...

I cannot wait to work with York Flower Shop for my wedding, simply because of Gretchen - and I am only half kidding. We met for a consultation, and it was one of the most fun wedding-related appointments I’ve had to date. She fostered a warm, genuine environment and had a wonderful sense of humor. I also adored the space we met in. I am so excited to see my flower dreams come to life!
